"Love each other like the members of your family. Be the best at showing honor to each other." Romans 12:10
We treat each other like family and strive to be a "home away from home" for international students. This includes meeting in one another's homes, playing games, studying, exploring new places together, and being able to be fully known and loved in all of our goofiness and seriousness.
"God's word is a lamp before my feet and a light for my journey." Psalm 119:105
Have you ever had questions like: Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going when I die? What is truly valuable in life? In addition to providing answers to some of life's biggest questions, we discuss how the bible relates to our own life to help us have a better understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
"A sweet friendship refreshes the soul" Prov 27:9 ; " If one person falls, the other can reach out and help." Ecc 4:10a
We've experienced how a good group of friends can make a big difference while going through the ups and downs of college life! We hope to create a space where authentic, lifelong friendships can be developed among students from all nations and walks of life!
"Plans go wrong for lack of advice; many advisers bring success." Proverbs 15:22

"We love because God first loved us." 1 John 4:19 ; "Let all that you do be done in love." 1 Corinthians 16:14
